Description

Special Needs Teaching Assistant – Challenging Behaviour Focus

Axcis are looking for multiple Teaching Assistants to join a highly respected special school in Wirral . The school is seeking 1:1 support staff for pupils between KS2–KS4, with a particular focus on those displaying challenging behaviour.

This setting is an Alternative Provision, and its core aim is to bring about positive changes in pupils’ lives, promoting both personal development and academic achievement.

We are especially keen to hear from enthusiastic, resilient individuals with experience supporting young people with:

ADHD

SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs)

Challenging behaviour

The role will involve supporting pupils who may display aggression, oppositional behaviours, or emotional dysregulation, so confidence, consistency, and strong behaviour management skills are key.

Role Details:

Hours: Full-time, 8:30am – 3:30pm

Start: ASAP

Pay: £13.50 per hour

Contract: Long-term, ongoing

Whilst prior school experience isn’t essential, experience with SEND and challenging behaviour in any setting (e.g. care, youth work, alternative provision) is required. An Enhanced DBS on the update service or the willingness to apply for one is also a requirement.

If you're passionate about supporting young people and confident in managing challenging behaviours in a calm and professional way, we'd love to hear from you.
